Garmin inReach Mini 3 Plus: What’s Actually New
HikingGuy.com ·
A trail-tested look at the Garmin inReach Mini 3 Plus. Lowest Prices I Found:* Upgrade? Gear I'm Using Now:* More Hiking Content* The inReach Mini 3 Plus adds a touchscreen and base maps to Garmin's smallest satellite communicator, but the maps are sparse with no trail details or contour lines. You can pan around, see your location, and review tracks, but navigation is still straight-line when done offline on the unit. Load a course from Explorer and you'll get off-course alerts like previous models. The touchscreen works well and makes the interface faster, but Garmin passed on routable maps. If you own a Mini 2, this is an incremental update. For new buyers, it's the current best option in the Mini line. 00:00 Maps 01:33 Touchscreen 02:43 Plus or Mini 3? 03:48 New Interface 05:24 inReach Subscription Updates 06:33 Recomnendations Disclaimer:*
